Can I?
"Open up to me You know how I am I'll always be there for you And listen. The best that I can" Right... So if I tell about something So dear to my heart, You won't scrutinise my story With such resentment? You won't cut me off And raise your voice? You won't guilt trip me And you won't judge? You will actually hold your breath And actually take time listen to me? You will actually listen to my side of the story? I won't go to sleep with burning eyes, A wave of heat and a swollen heart Filled with pain? You wont accuse me of always trying to fight With you? You won't give me the silent treatment And remain the same person you are? You won't accept answers that please just you Right after I have said the truth That you would've refused to accept? You won't leave me hating myself For trying so hard to please you, Even if it costs my happiness, And failing? "You can talk to me about anything." Anything? Can I?
